Return Of The Demon 54 Training The Body

That was why Bai Yun decided that he should share some of his secrets with the people that he trusted. Currently, only his parents and Old Hai were included in the list.

The secrets that he shared were simply the fact that he had multiple ident.i.ties in the Hunter Union. He also showed some of the ident.i.ties that he had taken, in order to help old Hai prepare for any eventual case. He could explain it away as an innate ability. There was no way anyone would think that such a sophisticated and powerful ability was a technique.

And just as he suspected, Old Hai was startled upon hearing his reply. But before he could ask any further, his eyes narrowed. He stared at Bai Yun and suddenly asked. "What the h.e.l.l happened to your face?"

As expected Old Hai had seen that he was still hiding something. Bai Yun undid the disguise technique and showed the old man the scar he had received.

Bai Yun then spend the next few minutes explaining his so-called ability as well as what he had been up to in the last few days. When he heard the Bai Yun had gone up against Zhang Zi and that was how he had acc.u.mulated all these injuries, Old Hai nearly strangled him.

"Of all the people, why did you have to run into Zhang Zi. He is generally considered the strongest person in the qi condensation realm in Yellow City. There are a few who can defeat him, but they are all at the peak of qi condensation or half step into foundation establishment while he only just entered the ninth stage of qi condensation. The fact that you could fight against him is a miracle."

"It wasn't a fair fight at all. The only reason I even had the slightest bit of hope was that I held close to him and did not allow him to use any of his strength. Also, I was completely drained by the time we were done, while he still had most of his strength remaining. I think that I would have to reach the sixth stage of qi condensation before I can properly defeat him." Bai Yun responded.

"But that is not important." Bai Yun continued. "First of all, I need to rest and recuperate. After this, I still need to improve the condition of my body. It simply isn't flexible enough. Do you know any place where I can do that?"

Old Hai smiled at this "So you finally noticed."

Bai Yun was stunned when he heard this. "You knew?"

"Of course we knew. How could we not? Your body truly is not fit for fighting." Old Hai said while laughing.

"Would it kill you to tell me." Bai Yun was starting to get annoyed at his parents. If they knew such a huge problem was there, they should have said something.

"We wanted to see how long it would take you to notice it by yourself. I must say, for someone who has never cultivated, you noticed it quite quickly. None of us expected you to notice it for quite a while longer."

Bai Yun rolled his eyes. There was no way he could tell them that he had cultivated for thirty thousand years. There were two reasons he did not notice this before. He didn't even know such a situation could exist in his previous life. Also, it would have been solved by the time he reached the pinnacle of the soul step in body cultivation anyway. He was only doing this to speed up the process.

"So there must be places where we can do this, right?" Bai Yun continued with his inquiry.

"The best place to improve the foundations of the body would be the clan's gravity chambers. It would allow you to train faster and have a holistic improvement of the body."

"In the gravity chamber, your entire body will be subjected to a higher gravity. There are various gravity chambers for various cultivation realms. Depending on the setting, it can vary from a ten percent increase to a ten times increase in the gravity for the qi condensation realm."

"The main advantage of the gravity chamber is that it can add a uniform pressure on your body. Thus it will allow you to better control your power than other training facilities. Also if you train in the gravity chamber, it will cause you to exert even more effort, thus speeding up the improvement of your body. Of course, this is only the condition that you don't use any external strength."

"But there is a catch to using them." Old Hai finished.

"Of course there is." Bai Yun smiled wryly.

"In order to use the resources of the clan, you need either clan's authority, special permission, or the clan's special clan points. The reason you were able to go deep into the clan library was because you had special permission from your parents. Currently, you have neither permission nor authority. Thus the only path available to you would be to get the clan points of the Bai clan."

"How can I acquire clan points?" Bai Yun asked instantly.

"The most common method is to do missions issued at the clan's mission office. You can also win them at the clan's special events. Another popular method is to bet points. Finally, if you are wealthy enough you can buy points by exchanging them with money or treasures. But the exchange rate for this is horrible. Only the scions of the wealthy and powerful in the clan would be able to afford it."

"My parents are rich enough that I can buy the clan points right."

"Of course. The money required to buy you time in the gravity rooms is nothing to them. After all, the gravity rooms for qi condensation realm are very cheap."

"But they won't give me any money would they." Bai Yun sighed as he asked this question.

"You can try praying. Who knows, a miracle would occur and they might change their mind." Old Hai laughed.

Bai Yun sighed after hearing this. Just then Butler Fang entered the room with all the medicines that Bai Yun had asked for. Bai Yun was startled to find that not only were there many powerful medicinal pills, they were also of very high quality. He had expected only a few medicines since his allowance was small. After he inquired about it, it seemed that his parents had given him a near infinite allowance for medicinal pills that could help in healing him.

Bai Yun laughed when he heard this. He figured that this was a way for his parents to tell him that he should go all out in training and that it was okay even if he nearly died.

The truth was that it was only a part of their thoughts. The biggest reason that they had made such arrangements was that they were afraid that something would happen and that he would fall back into his previous state. They wanted to make sure no expenses would be spared if that happened.

Bai Yun send the two of them out after this and got ready to rest and heal. But before he send them away he informed them of Bai Ling-er and Bai Shi and told them to inform him if they came around asking about him.

He then dissolved one of the pills in a large bathtub filled with water and submerged himself. It would have been better to eat the pills, as this method would lose some of the effectiveness of the pill, and was also generally slower.

But there were two reasons Bai Yun used this method. One was that this way would lead to fewer pill toxins in one's body. Another was that the direction of the pill energy was different. This way Bai Yun would be able to heal his injuries more uniformly over his body, while in the other case, the injuries closer to the stomach would heal first.

Bai Yun spend the entire day and most of the night healing himself. By the time he had finished, he had used up three healing pills. But he had not used any of the more powerful ones and had left them behind in case of an emergency.

Bai Yun stood up and inspected his body once again. He was satisfied with the improvement. All of the smaller cuts and bruises had healed by then. His organs had also stabilized. The only problems he still had were his right shoulder and his two arms. Bai Yun tried to rotate his right shoulder, only to have a sharp pain travel up his arms. Thankfully only the flesh of his arms was still damaged, and not the bones, which had healed by now.

It would be quite a while longer before he was back to his full strength. In the meantime, Bai Yun would be unable to use his hands deftly. Especially to fight.

From the outside, his arms had dozens of tiny scratches. They had all healed by now. But even then some of the larger cuts had scarred over. Bai Yun counted a little over a dozen tiny scars.

Not only, that there was also a long scar on the right side of his face.

Scars were not much of a problem for cultivators. Cultivators would not generally scar once they reach the soul step in cultivation, unless the injury was caused by special means that purposefully left behind a scar. This was why most people in the qi step tried not to fight with everything they had and would generally only try to overpower each other, just in case they got hurt.

And it wasn't like there was no way for people in the qi step to heal their scars. It was just a bit difficult to find the necessary item that's all.

And there were also benefits to his work. His qi condensation state had completely solidified and most of the impurities he had collected had gone. He could break through to the next stage of qi condensation without any problem once he found the right opportunity.

Bai Yun then used the a.s.sa.s.sin G.o.d's technique to cover up his scars. Since his hands had already gone through skin sewing this was no problem for him. The scar on his face was a small problem, but he did it anyway. It would not be good if the hunter union found out about his ident.i.ty by his new scar. In truth, Bai Yun was overestimating the power of the Hunter Union, not that it mattered much.

Once he was done, Bai Yun laid down on his bed and went to sleep.

It would be a long time before Bai Yun gained enough cultivation before he could forego sleep. But he was currently not at such a state. It was possible for cultivators to skip sleep and replace it with mediation, but it was not recommended to do so for a long time continuously. Currently, Bai Yun had already skipped sleep for a few days, and he needed to sleep now.

Bai Yun slept until noon. When he finally woke he quickly changed into a new set of clothes, and got ready. Then he covered up his scars with the a.s.sa.s.sin G.o.d's techniques.

Once he was ready, he left for the Bai clan mission office nearest to his residence.
